thats awesome. we got this board! thanks to me everyone. your welcome your welcome. jk.

so, about visual basic, i here it is 200 meg. is this true?

::)

Not really too sure how big it is... probably huge(it took me an hour to install microsoft visual studio... which has visual basic 6.0 in it... so I am guessing from that large load time that it is a huge ammount of mb.

Visual BASIC doesnt take up much room at all.. VB Enterprise 6.0 takes up 31MB on my hard drive.

Well I am not sure how much it takes up on mine, but I have the proffessional edition, so it probably comes bundled with tons of junk that I most likely will never use.

My Visual Basic folder is a little over 100MB. I install Visual Basic only because my Visual C++ requires that you install it first, so I go with a minimum install. Oh, and it's 6.0 pro.

the enterprise edition probably comes bundled with more stuff you'll never use than the pro edition. Enterprise is considerably more expensive than pro.

I don't know really how big VB is, though.

VB6 isn't required for VC6 to install. i only have VC6 installed alone. i don't even have office installed.

ummmm. what was i gonna say again?........ ummmm
oh yah. just a thought: would i be able to distribute vb games WITHOUT the pro edition? isnt there like a starter or begginer one? would i be able to distribute with that?

Oh, wait! I've got Visual Studio 5 not 6. Either way grey wolf, I'm sure your right, my disks always give me problems when installing anyway.

by the way, I know for a fact this is true for 5 and I'm sure it will be true for 6 soon....Back up your disks. I thought I had lost my disk 3, called microsoft, and they claim that they don't have any replacement disks for Visual Studio 5. Bastards. Not exactly a cheap program...I don't care how old it is they should still support it.

later,

Cool!

A programming board!

there's alot of moderators here

Well, df chose members who know stuff about programming, my specialty is php, perl, and mysql.

While others might specialize in assembly, c, or c++. All of us know enough about programming to help others, and maintain this board.

I know everything about Visual Basic 6.0...i helped write a book about it too!

Visual Studio 6 Enterprise 6 ONLY 32mb on your hard drive

That is S*** I got it VS, Enterprise 6 with the full installation, thats right, i installed all the features, although i only use VC++ and InterDev ;D

And what is the difference between VS 6 & VS.NET, i mean - what new features has it got??

Ciao

Yea but you need the huge files on the CD to run VC++.

i feel left out, not knowing VB and all. no offense to you guys, but i think its the devils language.
